Qriouz

An app that is faster than a business card

Sunday, October 16, 2016

In a time when many business are trying to go paperless business cards are still very much present. Our Slovenian based startup Qriouz launched an Android and iOS app that tackles this problem in a very original way. Instead of simply creating a digital copy of the paper business card Qriouz simply makes it easier to connect with existing online entities that people use on a daily basis and are accessible through our smartphons such as social platforms, file sharing services or a simple vCard. Qriouz connects with already installed apps and creates a shareable Qriouz code to easily connect or share files from person to person by simply scanning the other persons code. Setting up links within the app works the same way as using a social login on popular sites. You simply approve the social network you wish to use to activate the link available in the apps menu. The Qriouz code can be scanned by any QR scanner or even Snapchat. Several apps such as Snapchat, Facebook messenger and WhatsApp are reintroducing QR codes as means of exchanging contacts. The most notorious of them being the Snapcode we see popping up throughout different social networks. Users can exchange contacts in the time it would take to pull out a paper business card without having to write down emails, phone numbers or worry about the internet. The app also works offline by keeping track of the connections the user makes in the history tab. The team is just starting out and promises several exciting new features in the future. We will further develop the app to not only make it a great tool for users but for businesses and conferences as well.
